Traveler reviews
E Christian Cotterman
★★★★★5 years agoWhen it's clear, you have a view of the Alps. Nice place to have a beer and watch the sunset. If you bike, be aware of hikers...they aren't all polite. Also you can start your geocaching here, just beware of Muggles.

★★★★★9 years agoVery nice vista point in the Perlacher Forst Woods just rising above the trees: Provided there is good weather spectacular views of the Bavarian Alps! By the way: Not a natural hill but a former flak bunker structure from WWII that has been covered by the excavation material from building the nearby autobahn after the war.
